My primary post as it has been a thorn in my side due to the online social sarcasm that I can liken to Facebook. Not that I should let it drag me down as much as it has already. Maybe I can begin to feel better about myself after some clarification.
Ok, maybe not all men but me. I want to marry a woman who is a woman. I want to marry a woman that is my best friend. I do not want to marry a woman who tries to be my Bro as a man would be my Bro. I like feminist properties in women not masculine properties. Love is very important when it comes to marriage and marriage should not be sought without Love. A relationship (marriage) without God in the center is destined for failure. A marriage takes two that become one flesh and they each have their part given by God. If the naturality of a marriage that God instilled into humankind is allowed to flourish then that marriage will be unstoppable. This only comes with putting him first. If two people decide they know best and make their own fate in a Godless relationship then fate it will be.
Perhaps my admirations in a wife are delusional as I have divorced twice over already.
I gave up on relationships four years ago. I thought maybe I could use this to vent but it only made things worse.
Yes I want a woman to be pretty and take care of herself. If a woman dresses herself to show off her breasts and put focus on her booty and draw attention from men sexually, she is not marriage material, she seeks sexual attention from men before marriage she will do it after marriage also.
Sometimes I think about looking once again but relationships always got in the way of my relationship with the Almighty. I know that if Both are grounded in God and seek him Together then that relationship with God must grow also and not falter as it did before. I didn't have enough strength to carry enough oil for two lamps and Being unequally yoked causes the strong ox to stumble also.
So much to think about..........
Beautifully said, TheLastKnight!
Its tough when you look around and everyone you meet seems to be attached to worldly ways and wanting worldly relationships. But what matters is that you are pressing on, you are making Him your priority, and you are not settling. Its tough, really tough. I'm in a similar spot as you are... I would like to meet my best friend too.
The alone times suck, really suck. And that facilitates me running into Jesus' arms, day in and day out. He just keeps on telling me "in time, don't worry".
You are doing the right thing by desiring a Godly relationship. That in and of itself should be a reason to celebrate!
